This is how rum is supposed to taste. Smooth and easy to drink with hints of wooden barrels. Sweet but not too sweet and no bad after taste like you get with cheaper bottles. Aged is the way to go and this is my new go to rum!

Definitely tasted the caramel, and a fruitiness that made this one a little milder. Good on its own, and think it would do well in daiquiris or other fruit drinks.

Samantha, Dec 9, 2019

This rum was smooth and had a sweet fruit taste.

John, Dec 6, 2019

Really liked the bourbon notes and the balanced contrast between the fruit and leather and tobacco

Angela, Dec 5, 2019

Good caramel and banana flavor, but too strong of a burn

Zachary, Dec 5, 2019

A good rum. Probably won't order again.

Jeff, Nov 10, 2019

Nive sipping rum. Sweet notes of caramel.

John, Oct 2, 2019

This one had a good aroma, initial taste and sipping, but the finish was quite dry

Michael, Jun 23, 2019

Love the tobacco and leather elements, deep complex flavors develop from the first sip and reveal themselves over a long finish. Lime notes toward the end. Very different. Looking forward to buying a bottle.

Colin, May 4, 2019

Great rum which is smooth and full of flavor. A real treat

Chase, Feb 16, 2019

Smooth like rum too much spice in the aftertaste for me.

Paul, Feb 8, 2019

Real good, smooth and very long finish with coffee notes. Balanced sweet and spicy flavor with great banana nose

love the leather smell

Antti, Jan 14, 2019

It is a very good, intense, Dark Rum with a complex birth; while a crisp & warming life; that leads to a very long death with notes of lime, ginger, spiced toffee & espresso.

Charles, Dec 15, 2018

Good taste. Was looking for more flavor

Roy, Nov 14, 2018

Good flavor. Definitely spicy with a smokey, tobacco finish on the back of the tongue

Charles, Nov 12, 2018

Nice & light. Expected more flavor

Ola, Nov 12, 2018

Great overall rum, not overwhelming in any area. Very well-balanced and a solid sipping choice. Good price point to introduce someone to sipping rums.

Lindsey, Oct 19, 2018

Pretty good. A little over-leathery and some spice and smoke that overpowers the aftertaste. Still, a pretty good sipper. Rocks made it open up a bit but also made it a little too shallow. Did get rid of the overpowering spice and leather notes though.

Lisa, Oct 14, 2018

I never thought I would ever have a "sipping rum", but this changed my mind. Easy sipping like a good Scotch. Very good.

Steven, Sep 29, 2018

Sweet nice notes

Robert, Sep 28, 2018

Smooth taste great on the rocks

Mark, Sep 21, 2018

A sipper for sure

Becca, Sep 12, 2018

Like walking into to a leather store

Carl, Aug 26, 2018

The taste of the rum was nice to my palette. Alcohol was to harsh for my taste.

Paul, Aug 11, 2018

Very interesting. Not qite as dry as a scotch, but moving in that direction. I will get more in the future.

Andrew, Jul 22, 2018

Probably the best tipple to touch my toungue was XO I’m sure they have made the best Rum on the planet.

Nelo, Jul 20, 2018

strong to start but gets more complex and flavorful over time. The finish is amazing.

Sarah, Jun 22, 2018

A really good depth in flavor, a burn to start but goes down real smooth. Definitely get a the caramel and banana with a hint of mango but not sweet. Would pair really good with ginger ale.

Derek, May 17, 2018

I'm not a traditional Rum connoisseur, so my palate may be different from the, so called experts. However, I do love a great Bourbon and Afrohead XO 15 year rum give me notes of vanilla, caramel, and sugar cane that out of this world. I like to follow each swallow with a small sip of water, which totally brings out the flavor notes is the remarkable distilled spirit. The fact that it's aged in Jack Daniels barrels is evident and highly appreciate. This has become one of my all time favorite drinks...neat and never mixed. I'm such a huge fan, that the regulars in my cigar lounge call me the un-official spokes person for Afrohead, what a huge compliment.

Michael, Feb 21, 2018

Not much flavor - smooth but lacking in depth.

Joshua, Feb 16, 2018

Undrinkable, nose wasn't unpleasant definitely could smell tropical fruits but seems more like a cover up. This rum tastes like chemical candy.

Desirae, Feb 15, 2018

Smooth and satisfying. Small bite to it.

Jackie, Feb 9, 2018

Nice and smooth

Tony, Dec 22, 2017

Smooth

David, Oct 3, 2017

This rum is for the smooth in you I enjoyed this with a nice cigar and some jazz music in the background. It’s not overly sweet but has just the right amount of kick at the end. I will be buying more.

Louise, Sep 28, 2017

Smooth

William, Jul 26, 2017

Great long finish with a bit of a cognac taste. This rum doesn't linger either. Well done.

Anthony, Feb 13, 2017

Not as heavy as expected, but hints of very complex flavors. Would not hesitate to mix. Will try again after a little time.

Annie, Sep 18, 2016

Beautiful robust flavor with mossy oak/peat undertones.. Sweet & heady upfront with caramel/toffee undertones & a Very smokey finish. Very good, but I Prefer the Afrohead 7 year personally. Think the aged flavor here is a bit too much. Like Laphroaig, (one of my hubby's favorites) kind of a kick in the teeth.
